A ROAD THAT MUST BE BUILT.
A Railroad From salt Lake West Into
Nevada.


Judge Goodwin, editor of The Salt
Lake Tribune, is the untiring advocate
of railroad from Salt Lake City west
ward through Nevada to California.
In recent issue of his paper Dir.
| Goodwin SAYS:
Colonel Goss made preliminary
survey of a road last Winter, starting
from Milford and going through to
bevond the Sierras on the Southern
route. He reports the route practic-
able and the grading easy, though in
places it would run up to over two
per cent. grade. He was astunished
at the mineral resources of the country;
saws there are indications of rich mines
ali the way, and he found three or four
quartz mills abandoned on rich mines
tor want of fuel to run them. At one
place they reported that the last wood
they bought cost $34 per cord. He
thinks the road should be extended
from Milford, with branch to the
Cedar City coal measures, and that
another road should be run west and
southwest from this CITY to tap the
mining districts which would lie III
recily in the path of the road. Where
they should connect and go on, thence
to the coast, would depend upon more
Careful! surveys and a more Thorough
calculation of the work which would
be supplied the roads There is, how
ever, no doubt about the immense pns-
sibilities of the country as mining
region. There is one lead sixty miles
west and sixty miles south of Pieche
that Is forty feet wide. and experts
have told US the whole mass would
yield iron twenty-five to sixty per
cent. lead and thirty ounces of silver.
Colonel GOsS estimates the cost of a
standard gauge road for two or three
hundred miles west of here at about
81 900 per mile for grading, $1,000 for
rails, $4,000 for ties, bolts, etc, and
50, 900 for rolling stock. I'VE are copy

There never was nor never will he,

Truth" though often "crushed to
earth, will rise again" But wrong,
once buried, rots in It's grave. That
gigantic monopoly, the c. P. R. r.,
which has Systematically robbed the
people of Nevada and this Coast for
years, within the limits of the law, are
now feeling the weight of public agi'
tstier. aud trimming their sails to
avert the coming storm.
Before the suspension of the long
aud short haul clause Of the Interstate
Commerce act, says the Silver State,
the rate ON lumber from Truckee to
Winnemucca was reduced from 500 to
$40 per carload, the latter having been
the rate to Ogden for years. This re-
duciion was made in April and as the
Interstate Commerce Commission pro-
viieti in the order suspendiRg section
four of the Act, that rates to intermed-
late points on interstate railroads
should not be increased above what
they were on the goth of April, the
people of Central aud Eastern Nevada
are now paying less than one-half the
usual freight on lumber.
Now the railroad company has re-
duced the freight on coal from Ogden
10 Winnemucca from 80 = cents to 261 J
cents per 100 pounds on carloads OF
not less than 10000 pounds. This re-
duction, like that made on lumber,
will he greatly appreciated by the
people. Fuel is scarce and high priced
throughout Central and Eastern Ne
vada. and whatever tends To cheaper
il is public benefit. Heretofore the
freight alone being over $40 per ton
made coal exhor6ltantly high, and IT
was question whether soft wood at
IS OF 50 per cord. or coal at $I5 per
ton was the cheapest. Now. un.es
the price of coal at the mines is adj

THE FIRST LADY MAYOR.

Argonia, Kan, is the only town
in American which ever elected a
woman to the Office of mayor
Mayor Salter's maiden name was
Susanna Madora Kinsey. She was
born of parents who were members
of the Society of Friends, on farm
near Lamira, Belmont county, o.,
in 1860. In 1872, when she was
12 years old, she removed with her
parents to a farm II miles west OF
/ Topeka, Kan. In 1878 and 1879
she attended the Kansas State In
dustrial College, Manhattan, where
Louis A. Salter, son Of Lieuten-
ant Governor of the State, to whom
she was married in 1880, was a fell
low student. Owing to i'll health
Miss Kinsey did not graduate, but
left college for home in the early
part OF 1880. When in 1883 her
fathers family removed to Argonla,
she and her husband went with
them. The place was settlement
of Quakers, and its first mayor was
Oliver Kinsey, her father. Mrs.
Salter and her husband were proml-
nent in organizing a Baptist church,
and to her is largely due the origin
of a flourishing branch Of the WO-
mems Christian Temperance Union.
Mayor Salter was elected last
spring. Only two days before cleo
ton a meeting of the W. {. I. U.
was called, at which a candidate
for mayor and five councilmen were
named. Early on election day
